Hint #11 / 6
An start color #0c7f99, start text, e, x, p, o, n, e, n, t, end text, end color #0c7f99 tells us how many factors of a start color #ca337c, start text, b, a, s, e, end text, end color #ca337c we should multiply to find the value of an expression.
We write exponential expressions like this: start color #ca337c, start text, b, a, s, e, end text, end color #ca337c, start superscript, start color #0c7f99, start text, e, x, p, o, n, e, n, t, end text, end color #0c7f99, end superscript
For example,
start color #ca337c, 6, end color #ca337c, start superscript, start color #0c7f99, 2, end color #0c7f99, end superscript, equals, start color #ca337c, 6, end color #ca337c, times, start color #ca337c, 6, end color #ca337c
Multiplication represents repeated addition. For example, 6, times, 2 represents 6 groups of 2 added together:
6, times, 2, equals, 2, plus, 2, plus, 2, plus, 2, plus, 2, plus, 2
Let's use these definitions to match each expression to its expanded form.
Hint #22 / 6
5, times, 5, times, 5 has 3 factors of 5. So we can write an equivalent expression where the base is 5 and the exponent is 3:
5, cubed, equals, 5, times, 5, times, 5
Hint #33 / 6
3, times, 3, times, 3, times, 3, times, 3 has 5 factors of 3. So we can write an equivalent expression where the base is 3 and the exponent is 5:
3, start superscript, 5, end superscript, equals, 3, times, 3, times, 3, times, 3, times, 3
Hint #44 / 6
5, plus, 5, plus, 5 shows 3 groups of 5 added together. So we can write an equivalent expression using multiplication:
3, times, 5, equals, 5, plus, 5, plus, 5
Hint #55 / 6
3, plus, 3, plus, 3 shows 3 groups of 3 added together. So we can write an equivalent expression using multiplication:
3, times, 3, equals, 3, plus, 3, plus, 3
Hint #66 / 6

The answer:
